    This was an amazing record. I mean really great this is a five star record and the only reason it wasn’t well known is that they did some things to deliberately toned down it’s pop qualities like the unorthodox structure of this song for example, and of course it was on a record label that isn’t tied into the machine. But if you haven’t heard this record from start to finish please buy it it’s one of the best records of the era.

      Lol. I look after a group of anarchists every day now they are getting into old age. I love the fact that they tell me things that would never be allowed now. Forget Saga, live your old age to the full, they went through the war, spouses dying and children too, no satisfactory water cleanliness and so the old illnesses of tuberculosis, cholera and flu.
      They cannot understand vaccinations as they all got mumps, measles and all the other childhood diseases were necessary to prevent you from getting them when you were growing into adulthood.

    I'm just gonna list the events mentioned in the song that I recognize
    -9/11 Terrorist Attacks
    -The Moon Landing (obvious)
    -John F. Kennedy's Assassination (obvious)
    -The Columbine High School Massacre
    -The Waco Siege
    -The Oklahoma City Bombings

    • @petrichor2889
      @petrichor2889 7 років тому +6

      Why are they not all marked as (obvious) when they all explicitly name the event in question in the lyrics?
      9/11 you get some leeway cos they only they reference a plane, but the others are literally directly named.
      Just wondering, really.
      Some less obvious ones were Princess Diana's death and the Iraq war.

  • @grahamdee1416

    Un was a welcome return to a poppier sound after the chillout of the Readymades era, but although it has its gems, Un is not a particularly strong record overall. If they were to return to a classic Chumba pop record, I'd rather it was more reminiscent of Anarchy than WYSIWYG. But Un does hold a special place in my heart for being the last from the full electric band

      Reverend Howl
      I'm pretty sure it's referring to the Columbine High School Massacre in 1999 since it said "In the *canteen* down at Columbine with *bags* they never found" and the original plan Harris and Klebold (the shooters) had was to plant two *bags* filled with a 20lb propane tank bomb in the cafeteria, which can be referred to as a *canteen* , of the school in order to kill the students within.
